Universes & Cosmology
Thinking about of our
universe many wonder question hit in my mind
that any others plant like our earth where life exists or not ? because
our earth is just small planets.
Here Buddhist idea has
conception that hundreds of thousands of suns, moons, earths and higher worlds
constitute the minor world system in pali texts
same as modern science nowadays.
The Cosmology of the
Universe is based upon the discovery that the universe is expanding. Until
just a few years ago, there were 9 planets in the Solar System. However, the
International Astronomical Union decided that Pluto (dwarf Planet) is no longer
a planet, so there are now only 8 planets in the Solar SystemThe most accurate
measurement currently gives the size of Pluto at 2,400 km (1,500 miles) across.
Although this is small, Mercury is only 4,880 km (3,032 miles) across.one of the the most impotent ideal about our universe that we can know clearly which plant is real plant called following three rule as below to complete to be a plant It needs to be in orbit
around the Sun – Yes, so maybe Pluto
is a planet.
It needs to have enough
gravity to pull itself into a spherical shape
– Pluto…check
It needs to have
“cleared the neighborhood” of its orbit
– Here’s the rule breaker. According to this, Pluto is not a planet.
According to the studies carried out till now, there are at least 100 billion galaxies present in our universe and each galaxy consists of 350 planets.So, this indicates that in all there are 35 trillion planets in our universe but this minimum amount of planets as a large part of universe is still believed to be untouched.Scientists have predicted that our galaxy, the Milky Way, has about 400 billion stars. Therefore, our solar system is only a tiny part of the Milky Way. Each galaxy has star, gas and dust held together by gravit (force). So what do we know about this universe to clear understand this discovery of an expanding universe was made by two astronomers Hubble and Huminson in the 1930. In this theory of cosmology the universe began as an explosion. (Modern scientific cosmology is usually considered to have begun in 1917).
The Earth’s moon age about : 4.527 billion years orbits to earth by 27 days. The Moon is the only natural satellite of the Earth . The Moon is the brightest object in the sky after the Sun . Between the earth and moon far way 238,857 miles.
The Earth and Moon were
thought to have been formed nearly 4.54 billion years ago but new research
suggests they were created much later.
The effect on light
from stars. Light travels in waves in space about 186,000 miles, the stars
After about 10 billion years a star will use up all its nuclear fuel. New stars
are born out of the dust and gasses of stars that have died. This happens over a period of billions of years after
the dust and gasses are condensed together.
A star is a
massive, luminous sphere of plasma held together by gravity. At the end of its
lifetime, a star can also contain a proportion of degenerate matter.
Our solar system is
filled with a wide assortment of celestial bodies - the Sun itself, our eight
planets, dwarf planets, and asteroids - and on Earth, life itself! The inner
solar system is occasionally visited by comets that loop in from the outer
reaches of the solar system on highly elliptical orbits.
Solar system formation
began billions of years ago, when gases and dust began to come together to form
the Sun, planets, and other bodies of the solar system.
According to our texts
book, not only bear life but may have bear intelligent life even in our galaxy
. Therefor Brahma Devas from other worlds coming down to earth to be of help
those in need.
